DLA WAIT TIMES THREAD 70

[Craftilyhopeful]

NC - new claim
COC - change of circumstances
MR - mandatory reconsideration
SD - scan date

Ehcp are great pieces of evidence tho,
Is urs a coc ?
Im not expecting to hear from them til dec time (25wk) I might call Friday to check they have scanned his form tho as as such no confirmation letter to say they have yet

@Cuphalfempty did they text to say you was awarded or did you phone up ? That’s amazing news!! Congratulations!! Xxx

No text from them. I called up they said a decision had been made but they couldn't tell me what. So I called back and tried my luck and they transferred me to someone who told me😅. The dreaded anxiety ridden wait is over for us for now. Hope yours end soon. Good luck xxx

@Cuphalfempty amazing!! So pleased for you. Think I’ll ring tomorrow morning again lol xxx

No it’s a NC SD 6/02

Sd 19/11

Can anyone tell me how long it took for UC to reply and backdate? Im on 2 weeks now n no replys. Thanks x

@Kirstylou91 do you follow the Facebook page aswell?

@Mum2allgirls no I’m not on Facebook xx

I’d ring them

Good luck to all everyone calling today Another person had payment today from 14th feb so there decision was prob last week. Mines not even with decision maker x

No point in me ringing I rang Tuesday

@Kelz23 was the scan date 14th Feb ?

Yes xx and they had payment today xx

@Kelz23 😔 so frustrating isn’t it, problem is it’s completely out our hands , it’s the not knowing that’s driving me insane

Is anyone calling today? I don't really want to be on the case but getting frustrated now 23/1 scan date

@Sausagedogtoddlesi would deffo ring with that scan date, when did u last call & what did they say x

@Kirstylou91 called up Tuesday but the person I spoke to didn't give me much except from my date and it's a 25 week wait now

@Sausagedogtoddles I seen a few on Facebook this morning been awarded from late January/ middle of Feb. Definitely isn't done in order but it's not fair when just get told 25 weeks 😫

@Sausagedogtoddles I rang Tuesday , she said we don’t need any additional evidence for ur claim we’re just waiting on a decision I was like oooo is it with a DM then she said no so she kind of baffled me then

@Kirstylou91 that's ridiculous they should be straightforward really, I've been told all different things on the phone that it's with a case worker then a dm like make up your mind. It's unfair on people waiting anxiety definitely creeps in.

@Sausagedogtoddles Yeahh it doesn’t make sense someone’s obv looked at it kus she said there’s no more evidence required but the process is just so long and draining , I get anxious everytime my phone pings incase it’s the txt saying child entitled to DLA

@Kirstylou91 I feel exactly the same, they definitely need a better system. I think I'll call up at 9 and hopefully have some news
